Technical Summary
This document describes an updated version of the Group Domain of
Interpretation (GDOI) protocol specified in RFC 3547. The GDOI
provides group key management to support secure group communications
according to the architecture specified in RFC 4046. The GDOI
manages group security associations, which are used by IPsec and
potentially other data security protocols.
Working Group Summary
This document, in its initial form (2006-2007) raised little discussion
in the group. Then it entered dormant mode till its revival in 2010.
Since then several reviews took place and issues found have been
gracefully corrected.
Document Quality
Cisco has a GDOI implementation. The experience gained while
implementing GDOI justified recent changes to the document.
Personnel
